If you get in touch with the cemeteries department and give them the names and dates of birth they should be able to tell you whether or not your ancestors are buried in the cemetery there. This is the address:-

Blackburn Cemetery,
West Park Lodge,
West Park Road,
Blackburn,
BB2 6DG

Google Blackburn Cemeteries and contact likely cemeteries. But also consider church graveyards if you think your family were members of a religious group. Lancashire organisations are, in my experience, very helpful in finding graves. Free of charge. Maybe they have now jumped on the bandwagon to charge for look ups, but I hope not.

Good luck with your search.

Oh and let me know how you get on, I've a few rellies died in Balckburn myself.

If you going way back June perhaps the Lancashire Online Parish website would be of help.
